Aidan O'Brien's winning surge in bumpers has come to an end but Exactoris has a strong NH pedigree and is one to note here and for the future. Lady Artemis was no match for Prickly at Down Royal though that was no disgrace but along with Avichi, beaten when odds-on at Limerick last month, her allowance should come into play. BROSNA GEORGE made a promising debut here and though unable to cope with Tesseract at Tipperary it was a very fair effort as the winner has since gone on to complete a double. Ross O'Sullivan's charge, who has a Flat pedigree, can go one better.
